After being announced several months ago, we finally have the music video collaboration between World of Tanks and Sabaton. Set to the bands existing song, “Primo Victoria”, it’s as delightfully mad as you’d hope:

In other World of Tanks soundtrack related news, WG will also be collaborating with Japanese game composer Akira Yamaoka (whose previous work includes Silent Hill) to create a new soundtrack for World of Tanks, along side work with Sabaton. Continue reading →

A new variant of the KanonenJagdpanzer has been seen on supertest. The key difference here is that it has lost the 90mm we all know and is now sporting a 105mm gun. Whether this is a replacement for the existing Kanonen or a new tank entirely has yet to be announced:
